nirix5: (not alright; by gblvr)
I think I hate Linux.

Yeah, it's supposed to be Xamount better than windows, but you can't even change the font on what I'm assuming is the equivalent of Word. And all the icons and stuff look like Mac icons. I hate Mac icons. I hate Mac anything.

At any rate, my computer is at the office; it's up and running, and internet accessible (hence this post) however, my use of it is very limited because my dad's weird about me being out of the house past nine o'clock.

Also, I don't have AIM on this, because to put AIM on a Linux system is ridiculously complicated. (I seem to remember putting AIM on this when it was Windows; "click here" and you were all done. This is like, download, sign in under user=root, add the html to line sixty seven, bake at 350 degrees for twenty minutes or until golden brown, enjoy.)

I can't handle that. I'm barely computer literate. I think Linux is made for hacker types who are past Windows and writing their own code. Which I am not. Ugh.

Plus the desk is set up quite awkwardly. So typing's difficult, and I have to reach over the keyboard to get at the mouse, which is a pain in the ass.

Sometimes I hate my dad's good ideas.

nirix5: (shower; crumpets)
I would like to thank, first and foremost, Mark Wilson, for bringing quantum physics to my attention when I was in tenth grade.

I would also like to thank Howard Shore for writing moving soundtracks that are excellent background music for writing apocalypse stories.

I would like to thank Queen Latifah for doing an album of jazz songs.

And lastly, I would like to thank those nice people in the thirteenth century who compiled the Clayette Codex at Las Hugelas, and included this song.

Trois serues, seur rive mer
chantant cler.
Lla jonete fu brunete;
de brun ami s'ati:
"Je sui brune, s'avant brun ami aussi."

Trois serues, seur rive mer
chantant cler.
La mainnee apele
Robin son ami:
"Prise m'avez el bois rame,
reportez m'i."

Trois serues, seur rive mer
chantent cler.
L'ainnee dit a:
"On doit bien jone dame amer,
et s'amour garder,
cil qui l'a."
